If I decide to challenge my dethronement, I’ll win – Sanusi explains

Dethroned 14th Emir of Kano from the Fulani Sullubawa clan, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi has stated that he is sure about winning in court if he decides to challenge his dethronement as Emir of Kano by Governor Abdullahi Ganduje.

In a footage recorded at Awe in Nasarawa State after a federal high court ruling that freed him from detention on Friday March 11, Sanusi stated that all he needs is fair hearing. He also disclosed that his dethronement letter was badly written and quite unprofessional.

“I’ve done what I could in 6 years. I’m moving on. The truth is I don’t want to go back. The (dethronement) letter was so badly written, so unprofessionally written”, he said.

“It is the easiest thing in the world to go to court. Fair hearing…High Court ruling, just like today. Did you query him? Did you ask him to defend himself? No. We should go on with the new phase in life.”

Meanwhile, Sanusi is now in Lagos. He arrived in the state Friday night.

Muhammadu Sanusi II ascended the throne in 2014, following the death of his great uncle Ado Bayero. On 9 March 2020, he was deposed by Governor Abdullahi Ganduje. Prior to his accession, Sanusi was an economist and banker.
